Growing steadily

Updates of front garden plants and finally started mulching the beds at last! All the plants seem to be doing really well, and I've started harvesting decent amounts of rainbow chard and radishes so far, with Emma taking home some radishes and a beetroot on her last visit round. Not much else to report on the gardening front, just watching the plants grow (literally). Enjoy :)

Harvest time baby!

Tonight for dinner we were lucky enough to have a lot of stuff that was ready in the front raised gardens to be eaten! We had fresh local gold band snapper with a side of fresh grown rainbow chard sauteed with garlic, lemon and chilli. A fresh salad of lettuce, radish and tomato (the tomato sadly wasn't grown but everything else was). We also cracked our first gluten free cider that we brewed a few weeks back and so far it's tasting nice! Needs a bit more brewing, but so far it's tasting good! All in all it was a very tasty dinner!! 

Pictures, enjoy. :)  

The haul!
